Also, another contender for my idiot of the year vote is Ryan Lochte for posting a photo of himself that got him a 14 month doping suspension :d

well, I think it's too difficult to answer those questions...there's really too much to choose from (maybe Ledecka as the sportswoman of the year is a slightly easier choice than the other categories)...

 

but the last one...well, this is the best category ever proposed...:lol:

so, I try to choose a name at least for this one...

and actually, also here we have a lot of people where to choose from...but I'd go with that former Argentinian boxer with diabetis who died because he took part into a croissant eating contest...:evil:

I just can't imagine anybody more idiot than that...:facepalm:

Team of the year is a tie for me: Sweden's male biathlon team and Belarus' female biathlon team

 

Disappointment of the year: Justin Kripps and Francesco Friedrich sharing the 2-man bobsleigh Olympic gold

 

Moment of the year: Ester Ledecka's super-G gold, and the combination of the German commentary and Ledecka's reaction after the finish / the snowboard gold was kinda expected, I found that much less interesting even though she made history

 

LOL-moment of the year: Marit Bjoergen at the 30km classic at the Olympics

 

Biggest idiot of the year 1: Without any doubt, Romano Fenati and his actions in Moto2, he has no place whatsoever in the sport because one day, someone's going to get killed because of him

Biggest idiot of the year 2: Neymar at the World Cup (or in general). Everyone knew he is an insane crybaby, but at the World Cup it went to new and terrible standards, children all over the world will imitate that crap 'because Neymar does it'

Biggest idiot of the year 3: Serena Williams in the US Open final, where even after winning a gazillian Grand Slam titles she just had to steal the thunder of a young first-time winner by acting like a spoiled brat when she lost

    • It's hard to believe it was still in this calendar year      
    • In last year, we were were happy with Brignone's wins, and today we're excite that della Mea is in the top 10... It's hard to imagine a bigger fall... And Goggia should give up on the giant slalom and focus on the speed events – Vonn isn't wasting time on the giant slalom, but is training for downhill and SG. Goggia last one finished on the podium in the giant slalom in march 2018, and she has no any chance of winning an Olympic medal at the regular competition. It's a waste of time and energy to finish 8th or 9th and risk injury. And we have to accept that without Brignone, we have no chance of winning a medal in the giant slalom in Cortina, and that's it.
    • yeah, just like Anna Trocker earlier Today   I think this is the best way to blow them    they're not ready for the world cup stage yet, but we're so bad right now that our coaches are digging deep
    • Some surprises and fun results so far at this year's Worlds. Like a few minutes ago, when  Harrysson made the 1/8 with another very good performance. Now he plays Jonny Clayton, who this afternoon made a stellar performance in a tough battle with Zonneveld. I don't see an easy match for Clayton, even though on paper he would have wished such an opponent for a 1/8 before the tournament.   Also i'm delighted that my fav Gary Anderson seems to be in good form, though at his age, he is prone to sudden bad matches at any time.
